Spring 2024
Lithium is crucial for battery production and is utilized in electric vehicles and portable electronics. Among alternative sources of lithium is flowback and produced water (FPW) brines, which can be recovered utilizing ion-exchange with sorbents such as lithium manganese oxide spinels. Among...

The Use of Terrestrial Laser Scanners for 3-Dimensional Modelling and Quantification of the effects of Competition and Phenology on Plant Structure with Fractal Analysis and Quantitative Structural Modelling Tools
DownloadSpring 2024
Terrestrial laser scanners (TLS) are active remote sensing sensors that use light to measure distances between the sensor and objects generating a three-dimensional dataset. This technology has been used in a diverse range of ecological studies measuring plant and vegetation properties. In the...

Spring 2024
The escalating global climate change poses a more severe challenge, and Canada, as a high-latitude country, is experiencing heightened Urban Heat Island (UHI) effects. Given the substantial influence of UHIs on urban, regional, and national climates, ecosystems, and human life, researching this...

Investigations into the Occurrence and Distribution of Bioturbation in Tidally-Influenced Sedimentary Environments
DownloadSpring 2024
Tidally-influenced sedimentary environments are regions where sediment deposition is strongly influenced by the regular ebb and flow of tides. These natural processes result in distinctive and often heterogeneous patterns of sediment distribution and sedimentary structures, both physical and...

Magnesium Doping for the Stabilization of a Spinel lithium Manganese Oxide for Lithium Recovery from Flowback and Produced Water
DownloadSpring 2024
Flowback and produced water (FPW), a potentially hazardous byproduct of oil and gas production, is a complex mixture of dissolved salts and organic compounds. FPW often contains modest concentrations of lithium, from tens to hundreds of parts-per-million. For this reason, and in response to the...

Sedimentary Facies, Lithostratigraphy, and Sequence Stratigraphy of the Lower Cretaceous Dina and Cummings, Alberta, Canada
DownloadSpring 2024
The Lower Cretaceous Aptian to Albian Dina and Cummings lithostratigraphic units comprise a complex assemblage of siliciclastic strata deposited in the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin (WCSB) during transgression of the Lower Cretaceous Boreal Sea. The internal stratigraphic complexity of this...

Evidence of euxinia in the Norian of western Canada: Implications to halobiid and monotid paleoecology and the sedimentology of the Pardonet formation
DownloadSpring 2024
The Norian Pardonet formation tops a well-studied Triassic stratigraphy in Western Canada which can be viewed in outcrop along the shores of Williston Lake, B. C. The Pardonet itself, however, has remained rather enigmatic. The formation is composed of dominantly finegrained, organic-rich...

Assessing uncertainties related to the use of satellite remote sensing indices to estimate Gross Primary Production
DownloadSpring 2024
Methods to quantify Gross Primary Production (GPP) are classified into two categories: Eddy Covariance techniques (EC) and satellite data-driven. EC techniques can measure carbon fluxes directly, albeit with spatial constraints. Satellite data-driven methods are promising because they overcome...

Integrated Ichnologic-Sedimentologic approach to reconstruct marginal to shallow marine paleoenvironments: The Lower Cretaceous Wabiskaw Member, Clearwater Formation, Alberta-Canada, Lower Permian Dandot Formation, and the Early Cambrian Khussak Formation, east-central Salt Range, Pakistan
DownloadSpring 2024
The interplay of independent variables (wave, river, and tidal input) in marginal and shallow-marine environments complicates identifying facies and interpreting paleoenvironments in the rock record. Therefore, predicting, correlating facies, determining facies thickness and distribution, and...

Spring 2024
The climate crisis has become one of the most critical and highly discussed issues that humanity is currently facing. As the impacts of climate change are becoming more severe, it is anticipated that internal and external migration will continue to increase drastically (IDMC, 2023. IPCC, 2023,...
